[no title] 1987

Curator: This untitled print by Klaus Meyer presents us with an intriguing interplay of abstract forms, currently residing in the Tate Collections. Editor: It feels light, almost ephemeral. The translucent quality and simple shapes give it a sense of playful impermanence. Curator: Meyer’s work often engages with the dynamics of post-war abstraction, reflecting societal shifts toward experimentation and the questioning of established norms. Editor: The combination of fluid lines and geometric shapes, not to mention the translucent paper, evokes the material investigations of the period, perhaps a commentary on mass production versus individualized craft. Curator: Absolutely, and the choice of these colours also seems deliberate. How do you interpret it? Editor: Green is generally a representation of growth, but it feels more like a contamination here. Curator: Interesting. Editor: All in all, I feel as though this piece prompts us to contemplate the evolving relationship between art, labour, and our ever-changing social landscape. Curator: A powerful way to conclude. Thank you.
